October 1, 2009 Chief Justice Martin of the Supreme Court of Western Australia recently spoke on "The Future of Case Management" at the 2009 Australian Legal Convention.
His Honour on Discovery
"The expense involved in discovery can be horrendous. It is unfortunate that attempts to achieve a national consensus on the best way of limiting discovery and the cost of discovery do not seem to have been successful. Certainly in Western Australia, we are doing our best to curtail the amount of time and money that is spent on the discovery process. The forensic benefit derived from what can be a very long and expensive process is often very limited."
